Girls Ia "a FACTORY.

I've been employing girls in my factory
for six years, and | can emphatically say
that like them much better than men.
They arc employed in every department
OF the business, and Il Is rarely necessary
to discharge any of them. / have never
had to discharge stenographer or tyro
writer except fer inability to read her
own notes, and I've occasionally encoun.
tered ono just graduated by n college who
couldn't do this Ia the factory the girls
arc discharged for only two reasons.
Now aud then one is found who is incor-
rightly lazy, and she is dismissed. Again.
somc OF them can't be cured of talking.
and IL they don't heed remonstrance they
are paid and sent away. Gossiping Is the
greatest trouble that /, and imagine nil
others who employ IA large number % girls
and women, meet In managing them.
They viii talk and nothing under the sun
Will prevent il, even though She rules
against chattcring on subjects other than
those connected with the business stare
them directly in the face That Is the
principal fault 1 have found, and it leads
sometimes TO the discharge of some GOOD
workwomnn; 1t never produces half the
evil consequences that tho bud habits of
male workmen do.-Globe- Democrat.
